FAQ
What is the maximum size for a social proof notification on mobile?
A social proof notification on mobile should not exceed 20% of the screen height and 90% of its width. In practice, aim for a component between 60 and 80 pixels tall, anchored at the bottom. Any larger and you risk blocking the main content and frustrating your users.
How many social proof popups can you show per mobile session?
No more than one or two notifications per mobile session. Smartphone sessions last an average of 72 seconds according to Google data. Showing more than two notifications within that window tends to increase bounce rates rather than improve conversions.
Is inline social proof more effective than popups on mobile?
On mobile, inline social proof — embedded directly in the page, near the CTA or price — is often more effective than floating popups because it doesn't interrupt scrolling and doesn't trigger a reflex to close it. Both approaches are complementary: inline to reassure users continuously, and a subtle popup to create urgency.
